It is 30 weeks today and we are hitting the final weeks. Erynn is definitely getting bigger and pushing into my sides more. She is still causing me to be tired alot and with work issues and things going on at home, I want to sleep all the time. I am ready for her to be here so maybe we can both get some little cat naps in. We start going to the dr every 2 weeks now and Scott and I start childbirth classes next Monday so wish us luck!
Here is what is going on with Erynn now:
Your baby's a bit more than 15 1/2 inches long now, and she weighs almost 3 pounds. A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds her, but that volume will decrease as she gets bigger and fills out your uterus. Her eyes open and close, she's able to distinguish between light and dark, and she can even follow a light source back and forth. Once she's born, she'll keep her eyes closed for a good part of the day. When she does open them, she'll respond to changes in light but will have a visual acuity of only 20/400 — which means she can only make out objects a few inches from her face. ("Normal" vision in adults is 20/20.)
